Seems the Calif proposition to fund private schools has failed.
You must register Jr. with the government next September. Mandatory anthrax shots in January.
Home schooling remains legal in KKKalifornia despite occasional attempts by school districts to suppress it. If you do real home schooling where you neglect to register your home school with the geheime stadt polezei you are very unlikely to even come to the attention of the authorities much less have any trouble with them. Most of the "Department of Children's Services" seizures of kiddies that are fodder for Net libertarians and right wing nuts would not have occurred had the little nipper's parents not handed them over to the educational authorities in the first place. Since sending one's kids to slave schools is the world's most common form of child abuse, the fact that families are "punished" for it by having their kids drugged, lobotomized, and (occasionally) seized is not as troubling as it would be had they not decided to damage their kids themselves by entrusting their brains to the government. No government school = no files = no starting point for oppression of children by the authorities. DCF ---- Some years ago, my daughter was asked by a woman in a shop why she wasn't in school. She gave the answer I had previously suggested, half in jest. "My daddy doesn't believe in your schools. He says they're controlled by the communists." Further deponent sayeth not.
